1978 Dodge Little Red Express on 2040-cars
Browns Mills, New Jersey, United States
|
Up for auction is my 1978 Dodge Lil Red Express. I absolutely love this truck I have owned it and driven it almost daily for the last year and was planning on keeping it for a very long time, but I am planning on moving and cannot take her with me.
She is a numbers correct 1978 Lil Red Express, 5th digit S in vin, bossing under passenger exhaust manifold is blank, and the front driver side bossing has the 8w which denots it as a pursuit 360 made in the windsor plant in 78 which is correct for the LRE. It does have a Holley 650 CFM carb which is non original but the 850 Thermo quads can be found to make it correct. The truck runs, sounds, and drives amazing Everything except the radio and the gas gauge work, the dash lights are temperamental but work most of the time. Heater wipers lights are all good. It is great as a fun daily driver. The rims are in pretty good shape could use a rechroming. The fact that it still has the correct rims is amazing alone. The floors and most of the body is solid. There is rot in the driver rocker and a few spots starting on the lower parts of the fenders which is common. There is rust in the upper front portion of the cab but the pinch weld for the windshield was replaced last year along with the windshield. Included with the truck is a replacement driver rocker and 3 doors with glass. It is eligible for QQ tags in NJ but It was my daily driver so I put regular plates on it. As a sentiment to how well it runs it has a good inspection sticker untill 2015 The title is clean and in my name from new jersey. If you have any questions please call me at 609 444 8638 or send me a message. Thank you for looking and good luck. Greg |

Indications of 825 hp and emissions issues for Hellcat called 'speculation' by Chrysler
Tue, 16 Sep 2014The 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat is probably one of the hottest cars of the moment mostly because of its insane, 707-horsepower supercharged V8. However, there are conflicting reports coming out that the powerplant might be having problems with its emissions compliance and may be capable of even more power.
Jalopnik says that an unnamed source within Fiat Chrysler Automobiles told it that the Hellcat was having problems meeting emissions standards at its 707-horsepower tune. The person claimed that the automaker has been testing the V8 with different types of sensors, possibly to make it a bit cleaner in the future. Autoblog spoke to SRT spokesperson Dan Reid, and he said about the claimed poor emissions, "It's totally speculation."
The source also claimed that the Hellcat had been dynoed at a monumental 825 horsepower, internally. Based on the other rumor, though, it's hard to imagine the engine being emissions compliant like that. Autoblog also asked Reid about this speculation about more power and was told, "They are totally speculating about that."
Small number of 2013 Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger models recalled
Sun, 24 Feb 2013A small number of units of the 2013 Chrysler 200 (inset) and 2013 Dodge Avenger are being recalled over a broken control valve in the fuel tank assembly. The potential 1,785 sedans were manufactured late last year, and if affected with a broken control valve could suffer from stalling or fuel leakage.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notes that the recall should begin next month, at which time owners can take their cars to dealers for repair free of charge. The full release with more information is just below.
Detroit 3 small cars lay an egg in latest Consumer Reports reliability study
Tue, 28 Oct 2014Consumer Reports has released its Annual Auto Reliability Survey and the results are, in a word, interesting. While we already covered the score-damaging effects of infotainment systems, there's another big angle to the data that's getting some attention - the utterly dismal scores of the Detroit Three's small car offerings.
The turbocharged Dodge Dart and Chevrolet Cruze, as well as the Ford Fiesta were their respective brands' lowest-scoring models, a stat that's made worse by the fact that the American automakers finished 25th, 21st and 23rd, respectively.
That's not acceptable for The Detroit Free Press' auto critic, Mark Phelan, who has penned a scathing critique of the D3's small car reliability scores, arguing that GM, Ford and Chrysler are "out of excuses."
